Trust Sweet Iron Curbgag French Bar Bit

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the horse's cheek area. This makes it a medium-thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the best materials. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Curbgag French Bar Bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Sweet Iron Curbgag French Bar Bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Curb Gag Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar.

Bit thickness

Side Piece

Curb Gags

The curb gag can be ridden with two reins. Increased pressure from the second rein causes the bit to tilt and pull upwards in the corner of the mouth. This means a stronger action. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. The bit also supports the horse's natural elevation.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
